We love everything about the park - the grounds are well-maintained and clean, there's plenty of shade, lots of space for activities/fun, the restrooms are clean, no homeless, no need to constantly look over your shoulder to watch your back... this is what a park should be! If you're in the area and want to stretch your legs and relax in a safe place, Mae Boyar Park is where you need to be!

I really like this park. They playground is covered I. The bouncy soft surface stuff. NO woodchips!…read more But also no sand if that's what you are looking for. Has bathrooms too, which is always a plus. There are two play structures for different ages. I really appreciated that because my almost 5 year old AND my 10 month old were both busy and happy, which makes this mama happy too! We set up a big blanket under a shady tree and enjoyed the warm day.

We recently rented Pavilion A at Oak Canyon Community Park for our daughter's 4th birthday splash…read moreparty, specifically because of its proximity to the splash pad. The park itself is beautiful and clean, which is why we felt confident booking it for such an important celebration. Unfortunately, shortly after our event began, the splash pad stopped working and remained off for the duration of our rental. This was the main activity for approximately 20 children in attendance. While a park ranger attempted to assist, there was ultimately no resolution. What was especially disappointing was the lack of urgency and care from park staff. There was no real apology or effort to make the situation right. We had to go through hoops just to get someone on the phone, which was frustrating in the middle of hosting a children's party. If pavilions are being rented out for private events, you would expect someone to be readily available to assist renters when issues arise. Additionally, we were told at booking that Pavilion B was already reserved and that inflatables were only permitted in that space. However, Pavilion B remained empty the entire time. Had we known, we would have booked that pavilion or adjusted our plans to include a bounce house to make up for the loss of the splash pad. While the park grounds are well maintained, the lack of communication, unavailable amenity, and absence of real-time support made what should have been a joyful day unnecessarily stressful. I hope improvements are made so other families do not have a similar experience.

It's too bad this park is not better maintained. The bathrooms had blood in the toilets' and had…read moreno toilet paper or soap. The playground isn't regularly cleaned and they haven't updated any of the equipment in at least 20 years. The area above and behind the playground is beautiful though (which is why it gets the 3 stars). Huge empty space to roll and run around and a shaded walk. This park is clearly for adults and not kids but when I was at the playground with my son there were at least 6 kids playing so they really need to fix it up.

I enjoyed the huge inflatable obstacle course where you can race the person next to you. I ended up staying the entire time, not realizing how quickly the time passed.
